“Don’t let the world slow you down. Your story is the most important thing coming down the line this year. It’s your year — make the most of it.”

Walter Mosley

 

“Writing a novel is not nearly as difficult as some people would make it out to be. Anyone who communicates verbally, or by sign, is a writer of sorts. Any manager, mother, counselor, teacher, or guy who hangs out on the corner telling tall tales is a writer-in-waiting.”
Walter Mosley
